Rev. j. c. Kimball, a Hartford. Conn,
pastor, preached sermon recently COM
pairing the Chicago anarchists with the
Saviour The text was taken from the
story about "Christ before PLATE and the

cendiary and offensive to his congregation
that his resignation will be demanded and

noxious doctrines in more appreciatiYe

A Peach Era.

A Ledger reporter during a trip the
latter part of last week, up and down
the peninsula, was astonished, as he
was delighted, to see with what sur
prising unamimity the farmers have hit
upon the sole means of escape from a
distressing financial depression. With
scarcely a probable exception, each
farm that borders upon the d. & c. and
Queen Anne's & Kent Railroads con-
tains a newly-planted peach orchard.
Those farmers who have been engaged
in the growing of this popular fruit
have enlarged their orchards from one
third to One-half, while those who hith-
erto have devoted all their arabic lands
to the raising of cereals have had their
mental vision frightened by the re-
numerative returns of their wiser neigh
bors, and have followed the example
set before them. The statistics of 1890
will note a new era for the Maryland
and Delaware peninsula. There will
be large decrease in the crop yield of
cereals, and a large increase in the
fruit shipment; therefore, perhaps, it
would not be indulging in too much
prophecy to remark that a consequent
lifting of the financial burden from the
shoulders of our farmers will naturally
follow EastOn Ledger.

A Great Fruit Display.

A number of gentlemen of the exec
utive committee of the Peninsula HOr-
ticultural Association met at the house
of J. P. r. Polk in Wilmington on
Tuesday to perfect the plans for the
exhibition which will be held in the
opera house, in that city, Tuesday to
Saturday, Sept. 2O-4 next inclusive.
They have decided to offer 800 each
for the best display of peaches, pears,
grapes and apples. In all probability
to this will be added a silver cup for
the handsomest display of fruit of any
kind There will be other prizes for
fruits and flowers. 1t is expected that
all grangers of Maryland and Delaware
will interest themselves and citizens of
both States are invited. The board of
trade of Wilmington is circulating a
paper among merchants to aid the
movement and $1,000 will probably be
expended on the affair, which it is in
tended to make the finest that has ever
taken place in the world.

removed from Caroline county, was
concluded in the Circuit Court for Dor
chester county on January 21st. The

brought in Caroline county, where the
plaintiff resides, to recover damages
for injuries received by falling through
trap-dOOr in the water-closet at the
depot in Chester, Pa, in December,
1885. The damages were laid at S2O,-

General Sheridan has proposed
striking and ingenious plan of harbor
defence. based upon his experience in
fighting Indians years ago. He found
sunken pits held by riflemen better
than forts, which formed clearly Wis
ible mark for the enemy. He there
fore proposes a series ofsubmerged pits
in the sea, with guns that can be raised
or lowered at pleasure, never rising
above the surface of the water so far as
to afford a good mark for an advancing
fleet. Such works would be better de-
Tended against hostile fire by the sur
rounding water itself than any visible
fort can be by steel or other casing.
The idea is worth consideration, as it
appears to offer maximum of defen-
sive force with a minimum of cost.

A Profitable Dental Practice.


The enormous wealth of the famous
Partisan pentist, Evans-not less than
$lO,OO0,0OO he is said to be worth-bns
been acquired not so much in the
course Of his regular practice as from
the huge fees given him by distin-
gulshed personages in various parts of
Europe who request his services from
time to time.
Thus he is always flying about from
capital to capital, pulling tooth from
one crowned head and filling cav.
ity in another, of course receiving in
such cases an emOlument proportionate
to the dignity of his patients. The
jaws of half the nobility on the conti-
nent are kept in order by Dentist
Evans, and the decorations he wears
sufficiently attest their appreciation Of
his professional skill.
It is said that he is the most dec
GRATED man in Europe. Ribbons and
crosses cover him from head to foot.
and many of them are Of such great
importance that they give him quasi
position upon which even dukes and
princess can hardly look down.
